Ryan Seacrest had to change his underwear for the American Idol finale

Time for a quick change. Ryan Seacrest meanwhile had to change his underwear american idol finale, when his stylist noted that his outfit left little room for viewers at home.

“America voted and said there was anatomy in the recording. There was just panic about it, and we changed it,” the 47-year-old radio host recalled during Monday May 23’s episode Live with Ryan and Kelly the “embarrassing moment”. Seacrest was just advertising when it was made aware of the issue. “We go to commercial and [my stylist Miles Siggins] says, “Can I tell you something? We need to change your underwear,'” Seacrest said. “I said, ‘What do you mean we need to change my underwear?'”

Unfortunately the On air with Ryan Seacrest Personality didn’t bring any extra underpants to the finals on Sunday, May 22nd. “[He said]’Don’t worry, I’ve got mine,'” Seacrest recalled. “He’s English, so he wears shorter, tighter trousers. They were tight, stretchy underwear.”

The producer continued, “It was in the middle of a live show! We go backstage during the commercial and we find a little corner and I literally take off my pants, my underwear and put on his. … Everything for [American Idol]. It’s a family show!”

While Seacrest laughed at the sudden wardrobe adjustment, cohost Kelly Ripa had a much simpler solution to keep things PG on screen. “No no no. Change the camera setting!” that all my children alum, 51, said. “I would have said, ‘You get the camera and hang it from up here.’ I don’t wear Miles’ [underpants].”

The Georgia native has had his fair share of fashion faux pas in his 20-year tenure as a host american idol.

“It was the second season of american idoland the collective group that produced and styled for the show suggested I wear a see-through shirt to host the prime-time show,” he said Us weekly exclusively in September 2018 about his most embarrassing outfit. “That’s not a good idea.”

He continued at the time: “I should never do it. I don’t know if anyone should do that, but certainly not me.”

Meanwhile, Seacrest also made headlines american idol’s Season 18 finale in May 2020, when fans noticed he was slurring his words slightly and his right eye appeared larger than his left. Back then, Us confirmed that he was suffering from exhaustion and would have to take the next day off Live with Kelly and Ryan.

“Ryan has done his [radio show] live in the air [and is getting ready] to drive to Austin american idol audition,” said a source Us on the TV personality’s health a month later. “He realizes that during these busy work hours, he needs to find time slots to rest.”
